Non depreciating run around
I'm looking to spend around 12k on a cheapo fun car just until I get my proper motor 
but I want something that is going to be fun & something that's not going to depreciate much over say 6 months or so.
I'm thinking Focus RS or a Porsche Boxster.
What do you people think will depreciate least & be most fun out of the two?
Thank you please

I did think exige but i'd have to spend a bit more than 12k which isnt a problem BUT they seem to be really hard to sell & I dont want to get stuck with the car longer than I need to.

When I say run around for 12k I dont mean that 12k isnt a lot of money because it is, I just meant that I dont want to spend too much until I get my proper car

cant really think of any other cars that dont lose much money.
Scooby P1's hold on not too bad.
Really needs to be a special edition if its to avoid the drop.

Focus RS will be hard to sell if you've only had it a few months IMO..
There would be one car that fits the bill perfectly for that money
MINI COOPER S ( Works or Hartge converted)
210+BHP and LOADS of fun to drive
recently named the least depreciating car on the market ( well the cooper was anyway )
